    Space X CEO Elon Musk and Argentinian President Javier Milei have met in Texas and spoke about working together to promote free markets and potential lithium projects. President Javier Milei’s chief spokesperson said that during their visit to Tesla’s Austin headquarters, the two talked about a range of issues, including the need to boost declining birth rates globally and the pursuit of technological advancement while upholding “liberty.” Musk has previously expressed his admiration for Milei’s unabashed support of private enterprise as well as his distaste for what he considers to be socialist excesses.

  • Tesla's weak first-quarter deliveries an 'unmitigated disaster' for Musk

    Fox Business ^ | Eric Revell
    Tesla's quarterly deliveries declined for the first time in nearly four years and fell short of Wall Street analysts' estimates amid a challenging competitive landscape in the EV market and questions regarding the company's direction. The Elon Musk-led automaker's stock declined by 4.9% during Tuesday's trading session and slid a further 0.28% in after hours trading, with the stock down nearly 33% on the year. That followed Tesla's announcement that it delivered roughly 387,000 vehicles in the first quarter – well below expectations of about 443,000 and an 8.5% decrease compared to the first quarter of last year. "Let's call...
  • A Pivot to China Saved Elon Musk. It Also Binds Him to Beijing.

    New York Times ^ | March 27, 2024, | Mara Hvistendahl, Jack Ewing and John Liu
    Tesla and China built a symbiotic relationship, with credits, workers and parts that made Mr. Musk ultrarich. Now, his reliance on the country may give Beijing leverage. When Elon Musk unveiled the first Chinese-made Teslas in Shanghai in 2020, he went off script and started dancing. Peeling off his jacket, he flung it across the stage in a partial striptease. Mr. Musk had reason to celebrate. A few years earlier, with Tesla on the brink of failure, he had bet on China, which offered cheap parts and capable workers — and which needed Tesla as an anchor to jump-start its...
  • ‘The Don Lemon Show’ in tailspin after being dumped by Elon Musk: ‘Nobody is watching’

    Don Lemon’s new online show is grappling with a fast-shrinking audience after he was unceremoniously dumped by Elon Musk — and the pittance in revenue may not even cover the costs of his bare-bones production, The Post has learned. The former CNN anchor — who had demanded millions of dollars, a flight on a SpaceX rocket and a Cybertruck before being fired by Musk’s social network X following a testy sit-down interview — suffered a massive decline in viewers for the second episode of “The Don Lemon Show.” “Nobody is watching,” one media watcher told The Post. “Poor Don, he...

    Former President Donald Trump and his allies on the Republican National Committee want to convince Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk to speak at the GOP convention in July, people familiar with the matter told CNBC. Republican leaders believe that giving Musk a speaking slot at the convention could lead to some of his fans boosting what has been the party’s historically lagging support among young adult voters on Election Day, said a source with knowledge of that belief. Trump is expected to be confirmed at the Milwaukee, Wisconsin, event as the Republican presidential nominee, setting up a rematch of...
  • Elon Musk: Democrats are rigging the electoral college through apportionment

    Twitter/X ^ | March 8 | @elonmusk
    @elonmusk Most Americans do not know that the US census currently counts, for purposes of voting power, all people in a district, regardless of citizenship! Senate Democrats just voted unanimously to defeat an amendment that would have stopped counting illegals for congressional seat apportionment and electoral college (presidential) votes. Since illegals are mostly in Democrat states, both the House and the Presidential vote are shifted ~5% to the left, which is enough to change the entire balance of power! This is a major reason why the Biden administration is ushering in record levels of illegals and doing so few deportations.

    A secret meeting between Elon Musk and Donald Trump has sent speculation swirling that the Tesla boss could bankroll the Republican presidential hopeful's campaign. The two met on Sunday in Palm Beach, Florida, along with a few wealthy Republican donors, according to the New York Times. Trump and his team are desperately seeking a cash injection to boost his presidential campaign. Musk is currently the second richest man in the world, with an estimated fortune of $200billion. The Tesla founder has become more political in recent weeks and has been posting on social media platform X blasting Democrat Joe Biden's...

    X Owner Elon Musk has a dire warning for America following the news of the Biden regime secretly flying hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens, as TGP reported this morning. The Regime claims 320,000 unvetted aliens have been flown across the country to “reduce” the number of crossings across the border. This, of course, is an outright lie. It is unknown where these migrants are arriving from. Information from The Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) reveals the Regime claims the locations are kept hidden because “bad actors” could inflict harm on public safety, and the information could potentially create law...

    @elonmusk Treason indeed! Ushering in vast numbers of illegals is why Secretary Mayorkas was impeached by the House. They are importing voters. This is why groups on the far left fight so hard to stop voter ID requirements, under the absurd guise of protecting the right to vote.

    Jeff Bezos has usurped Elon Musk as the world’s richest man with a net worth of $200bn (£158bn) after a surge in the share price of Amazon. The Amazon founder, 60, overtook his rival for the first time in three years, with Mr Musk now sitting on a fortune worth $198bn, according to Bloomberg data. The pair’s fortunes are largely tied to their respective holdings in online retail giant Amazon and electric car maker Tesla. Amazon’s shares have climbed 18pc so far this year, valuing the business at more than $1.8 trillion as technology stocks rocket on the back of...
  • Lawyers who sunk Elon Musk's big pay package are now asking for nearly $6 billion worth of Tesla stock. Musk doesn't seem happy.

    Business Insider ^ | Mar 2, 2024 | Lloyd Lee
    Lawyers for a Tesla shareholder successfully argued in a Delaware court that Elon Musk doesn't deserve a $55-billion compensation package for his work at the EV company. Instead, some of that compensation package should go to them in attorney fees, the lawyers argued to a Delaware judge. The attorneys argued in a Friday court filing that the fee for their litigation work amounts to about 11% of the pay package. That amounts to about $5.96 billion worth of Tesla shares based on the current price of the company's stock at $202.64 per share. Chancellor Kathleen McCormick of the Delaware Chancery...

    Elon Musk took to his X account to deliver a dire warning over Joe Biden’s border crisis he says is “crushing the country.” In his Feb. 27 post, Musk warned that “Dams are bursting all over the country.” “America is only 4% of Earth’s population. If only 1% of the rest of Earth moves here, that would crush all essential services,” he said about the flood of illegals breaching out borders. “I am ringing the alarm bell, because the flood of illegals is crushing the country!” Musk concluded. Dams are bursting all over the country. America is only 4% of...

    Key Points: Tesla stock is down 21% in 2024 so far, and it's down 52% from its all-time high. Growth in Tesla's electric vehicle deliveries is decelerating. Tesla has a plan to reignite growth, but there are no short-term fixes for this problem. The electric vehicle giant isn't growing like it used to. Tesla (TSLA 1.81%) was the world's largest electric vehicle (EV) company by sales until the fourth quarter of last year when China-based BYD outsold it for the first time. Tesla once had the EV market almost entirely to itself, but now, it's grappling with a tsunami of...

    Dems won’t deport, because every illegal is a highly likely vote at some point. That simple incentive explains what seems to be insane behavior. It has become so brazen that a gang of illegals can beat up police officers on camera in Times Square, get out of jail for free and *still* not get deported! Instead, a partly federally funded NGO bought them free tickets to California …
